ANSWER: a=12 b=15
Explanation: (look at work below)
4a + 1b = 63 (eq1)
5a + 3b = 105 (eq2)
-12a + -3b = -189 (subt. eq1 from eq2)
————————-
-7a = -84
a = 12
4(12) + 1b = 63 (plug in the a value)
48 + 1b = 63
b = 15
X = 2
Using the trapezoid mid segment theorem, knowing that the mid segment is parallel to the bases and half as long as the sum of the lengths of the bases, we add the lengths of the two bases and set it equal to two times the length of the mid segment.
7x+3+ 15= 16(2)
7x+18= 32
Subtract 18 from both sides.
7x = 14
Divide both sides by 7.
X = 2.
You can check your work by solving for the length of the base 7x + 3.
7(2)+3 =17
Then, add the length of the two bases together.
15 + 17 = 32. Half of 32 equals sixteen, which is your mid segment.
(correct me if i’m wrong, i got the theorem off of the internet and did the rest of the work myself.)
M=f+240
m+f=25000, using m from above in this equation gives you:
f+240+f=25000 combine like terms on left side
2f+240=25000 subtract 240 from both sides
2f=24760 divide both sides by 2
f=12380, and since m=f+240
m=12620
So there are 12620 males and 12380 females in the city.
